About $1,583 a year for full coverage on a national average — 10% more than the $1,438 average car. Insurers rate the Volvo S90 at an index of 110 where 100 is a typical vehicle, based on how often and how expensively these cars actually generate claims (latest data covers 2022-2024).
The premium isn't spread evenly. Collision — damage to your own car in a crash — carries this car's highest loss index at 132, while Property damage sits at 88. That gap is the real reason behind the price, and it's the part a quote form never shows you. Among 78 luxury cars we hold data for, the S90 ranks #19 from cheapest, below the class median of 138. Over 8 generations of data the index has fallen from 144 (2015-2017) to 110 (2022-2024). Calculated from 11 insurance-loss records.
Why a S90 costs what it does
Insurers don't price a car with one number — they track losses separately for each kind of cover. An index of 100 is the average vehicle, so anything above means this model generates costlier claims of that type:
Read it as «where the money goes». A high Collision figure means these cars are expensive to repair after a crash; a high Comprehensive figure points at theft, weather and vandalism instead. Estimated annual split at $1,583: Liability (BI + PD) $760 · Collision $443 · Comprehensive $190 · Other (UM / PIP) $190.
